Instead of her partner awkwardly playing interviewer, one jobseeker gave Claude the job description, a link to the company's website and her CV, then did a mock interview. She went in far better prepared and got the offer.
You're interviewing me for this role. Job description: [PASTE]. Company website: [LINK OR ABOUT TEXT]. My CV: [PASTE]. Ask me one question at a time, mixing competency, role-specific and tricky questions. After each answer, give brief feedback and a stronger example answer using my real experience. Finish with my three biggest areas to improve.
Replace the [PLACEHOLDERS] with your own details before you send it.
How to try it
- Give Claude the job ad, company information and your CV.
- Answer out loud or by typing, one question at a time, as if it were real.
- Practise the weakest answers again until they feel natural.
